Tw: self-harm, rape

Okay so I was genuinely prepared to give this five stars, but then the ending happened? Like the last 50 pages? And I'm so incredibly confused right now and I think I need to finally come to the realization that no matter how many of his books I read, I will never be the type of person to enjoy Shaun David Hutchinson. The mental health discussions, the queer rep, and the romance is always good and on point; the writing is fantastic. I just...I can't do the weird sci-fi stuff. And don't get me wrong!! I love sci-fi, but I don't love it when it's blended with contemporaries to the point that it doesn't make complete sense nor is it fully explained. I dunno, just me.
